I dont see any reason why not, but the biggest issue is email farming. The reason the other one does not allow bots on it / google is because you don't want any automated bots scraping the mailing list. If you got that covered correctly, there should not be a problem.
But you can always just save your own mails and index that, faster and saves you the hassle. I do believe there is more than 1 place where they archive it though. Put maybe not in the best way. -----Original Message----- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Cameron Munroe Sent: dinsdag 27 november 2012 4:46 To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Email Archive So I could possibly make a better solution that does allow indexing via google?
